I live in a very light polluted area and this filter darkens the background to bring out objects that could not be viewed without it.

Fast Shipping, even in holidays. I used for upgrade from 1.25 in AP. The filter come a little bit loose in the thread, but nothing to worrie about. Very happy with it.

Our polluted and not so good sky turns black when viewed through this filter. Excellent for deep sky imaging as well.

The Celestron UHC filter works as advertised by blocking out the pinkish light from modern sodium vapor streetlights. However, it is not a substitute for truly dark country skies.

Just imagine capturing the celestial wonders with enhanced contrast and color, free from the interference of artificial and natural light pollution. The 2" UHC / LPR Filter from the reputable brand, Celestron, is meticulously designed to selectively reduce the transmission of certain wavelengths of light, specifically those produced by artificial sources like mercury vapor, and both high and low-pressure sodium vapor lights. It also effectively blocks the unwanted natural light caused by neutral oxygen emission in our atmosphere, commonly known as sky glow.
This high-quality UHC (Ultra High Contrast) LPR (Light Pollution Reduction) filter offers improved contrast over typical broadband filters, making the sky background appear darker and the contrast of emission nebulae noticeably improved. The advanced technology coatings on this durable filter enable an outstanding transmission of over 97% across the entire bandpass, with total blockage of prominent light pollution lines.
Ideal for viewing nebula from light polluted skies or for boosting the contrast of nebula from dark sky sites, this versatile filter is designed to be compatible with a wide range of cameras and telescopes. It's not just a filter, it's a game-changer for your digital photography and stargazing experiences, offering the highest quality celestial views. Experience the difference with the 2" UHC / LPR Filter and capture the universe in all its glory.
